The Lister ‘Archie’ Car is limited to just five examples worldwide.
To celebrate 70 years since Archie Scott Brown first raced the now iconic Lister Jaguar to victory
in
1957, the Lister Motor Company is recreating five very special limited editions of the “Archie Car”
–
the precursor to the revered Lister Knobbly.
Uniquely, the original car Archie raced in 1957 was destroyed at the end of the season to protect
Brian
Lister’s unique IP.
Therefore, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own the car that redefined
motorsport in the late 1950’s.
Each Lister purchased from the factory comes complete with HTP papers for historic racing events.

Archie Scott Brown was the sort of racer who made circuits feel smaller and hearts feel larger—a man whose courage and joy for speed outshone every limitation laid in his path. Born with severe physical disabilities, he refused to be defined by them, crafting a driving style of rare finesse and fearless commitment that turned sceptics into lifelong admirers. In Lister machinery he became electric: the green & yellow car dancing at Oulton Park, Goodwood, Snetterton and beyond, Archie painting grand sweeps of victory with wrist-flick precision and a grin that said he was exactly where he belonged. Yet it wasn’t just the wins or fastest laps that made him special; it was his kindness in the paddock, his sportsmanship on the road, and the way he lifted everyone around him—mechanics, teammates, and rivals alike. Archie’s story is not only about overcoming; it’s about belonging, flourishing, and inspiring. He proved that talent married to heart can change what people believe is possible, and he left the sport warmer, braver, and better than he found it.
